Thankful Thursday: Seasons

There’s little more beautiful than Indian summer, the time between the seasons when the days are warm and the nights get cool. I’m so glad to live in a place where I can enjoy the literal seasons–and so glad that God gives me seasons in my life as well.

“To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:
~Ecclesiastes 3:1

Thankful Thursday banner

This week I’m thankful for…

grass growing slowly so it doesn’t show that I barely mow

flaming sunsets in my rearview mirror as I drive home from Grand Island

leaves turning color and dropping on the ground, signaling the turn of the year

menu seasons that will come to an end (Thank You, Lord, that I don’t have to do this extra 20 hour a week menu work for more than 8 weeks out of the year.)

anticipating the seasons to come. Thinking about Christmas and 2012 (my care plans are now dated with target dates in 2012–so my mind is going there too). Coming up with ideas for my 27th birthday (so maybe I’m jumping the gun on that one, but I’ve got a TERRIFIC party idea.)

a God who is unchanging amidst every season’s change

Summer and winter and
Springtime and Harvest
Sun, moon, and stars
in their courses above
Join with all nature in
manifold witness
to Thy great faithfulness,
mercy and love
